Tela Ammo Review<\/h1>\n

Tela — as distinct from Tula — is a Florida-based importer brand of Azerbaijani\u00a0mil-spec lacquered steel case basic fodder for AK, SKS, AR, 10x, ARAK21, vz58…every comblock and US rifle of that caliber. <\/span><\/p>\n

You might’ve seen the relatively generic and plain ammo boxes and wondered what the deal is. Given that it looks like every other Soviet surplus range ammo, how good can it be?<\/span><\/p>\n

Range Testing the Tela Impex 7.62×39<\/h3>\n

The first test is functionality: the 124 grain Tela Impex 7.62×39<\/a> ran reliably in AKM, vz58, cz527, and AR15 over a few hundred rounds.<\/p>\n

Its velocity variation is in line with Wolf, Tula, and Barnaul brands. Cartridge length consistency is pretty good. In our range testing we found an extreme spread around 80 feet per second and our muzzle velocities ranged from 2300 to 2380 fps.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Close<\/p>\n

Tela lacquer seals its ammo’s cases around the case mouth and the primer pocket. Tela jackets their bullets with mild steel that’s covered with a thin layer of brass.<\/p>\n

If you’ve been around the range for a few decades, it might look familiar. It’s the same kind of ammunition that showed up in the United States as surplus around the early 1990s. Now, it’s and features non-corrosive primers.<\/p>\n

In our range trials, we found the ammunition seems a bit cleaner than Tula. I’d put it on par with the Serbian and Turkish brands out there in the market today.

In my testing, the ammo’s accuracy fell right where I expected it to for a bulk 7.62×39 ammo option<\/a>:<\/p>\n
